Backyard Cinema is back with LA Nights in Camden

This summer, you can travel to Southern California without leaving zone 1 with Backyard Cinema’s new season. It’s all happening at Camden’s Roundhouse from 18th July to 25th August, which has been made to look like the legendary Venice Beach, complete with palm trees, a retro beach bar and classic West Coast tunes. Come for the full line-up of cult classic films and new favourites — from Pretty Woman to A Star Is Born — and stay for the party.

That’s right: L.A. Nights is anything but a run-of-the-mill movie screening. Expect disco balls and jaw-dropping light shows and special effects, plus music courtesy of DJ Jaguar Skills, Slush Puppie cocktails, bespoke vegan ice-cream, beer crafted by Gipsy Hill Brewing Company and more. Plus select screenings will actually be sing-a-long nights, so you can channel your inner Olivia Newton-John or Freddie Mercury.

What better way to ring in the summer?
